Summary

This is a replacement M.2 standoff mount for boards which are missing the thread to install the standoff. See images for example.

I received a replacement motherboard for my Dell Optiplex 5250 AIO computer which was missing the thread for the M.2 SSD standoff to mount to. There is a thread on the smaller 2242 position, but my SSD is larger than that. This was intended to be temporary, but it worked better than expected, so I will keep it installed.

I recommend changing your print resolution to 0.16 or smaller.

v2 and v3 of the standoff provide a few changes:
-a longer thread for the 3d printed nut
-increases the screw hole size at the top
-shortens the standoff size so the SSD should sit at less of an angle.

I have v1 installed which works fine. I would try v3 if I were to print it again.
